A solution to this is to increase the "noise floor" by bundling steganography tools with common widely distributed software, so that obviously 99+% of people and computers with steganography software would be 'innocent'.
For example, if Ubuntu default installation would create a small (10mb?) sized volume filled with random bits and install an appropriate steganography tool designed to write/read encrypted data there, then it would enable anyone to hide some arbitrary data while having a file/software setup that's not distinguishable from millions of others in any way.
